Fox 36 SL Factory

This fork is designed for aggressive trail riding where you need a balance between lightweight efficiency and structural stiffness. It sits in a sweet spot for riders who want the precision of a 36mm chassis but don't need the excessive travel of an enduro-specific fork.

The signature gold Kashima Coating is more than just an aesthetic choice; it significantly reduces friction on the stanchions. This allows the fork to react more quickly to small bumps and provides a smoother, more consistent feel throughout its travel.

These channels allow air trapped in the lower legs to move into the upper casting, which helps the fork utilize its full travel more effectively. They also help circulate bath oil to the bushings, keeping the fork lubricated and responsive over long rides.

The fork features a standard Post Mount 180mm brake mount. If you are running a 180mm rotor, you can mount your caliper directly without an adapter; for larger rotors, you will need the appropriate post-to-post adapter.

The bleeders allow you to equalize the air pressure inside the lower legs with the atmospheric pressure outside. This is particularly useful if you are riding at high altitudes or on long, sustained descents where heat buildup can cause pressure to spike and affect the fork's sensitivity.

It is designed specifically for 29-inch wheels with a 15x110mm Boost axle spacing and a tapered steerer tube. As long as your frame is designed for a tapered steerer and Boost spacing, it should be a direct fit.
